Founded in 1926, the girls-only organization became a full member of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts in 1975.

The original Mauritian Girl Guides association, founded in 1926, was only open to English-speaking girls.

Soon afterwards, the Roman Catholic community opened its own, similar groups.

In 1990, the Mauritius Girl Guides Association expanded to include Rodrigues Island.
